Mother daughter book club pies and prejudice
One of the things I really love about this series is how Frederick ties in facts about the authors her book club is reading. Girls especially, who are often asked at this age what they want to do with their lives, may find Jess’s discoveries enlightening. Cassidy, Megan, and Emma all seem to have a good idea of what’s important to them, and it’s interesting to read about Jess’s journey of self-discovery as she seeks to find what matters to her.
The girls have definitely matured as they have moved on to high school, and each of them gets involved in activities and causes that help them pursue their passions. As Emma makes new friends, and enemies, the other girls are sizing up the Berkeley boys in Emma’s house. Some of those first impressions are made when Emma and her family move to England for a year, trading places with another family that moves into their home.
Darcy discover that you can’t always judge someone by first impressions, the book club girls are finding out how true that can be in real life as well. This year the book club girls are adjusting to high school and reading Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice with their moms.
Fans of Heather Vogel Frederick’s Mother-Daughter Book Club series (I’m one!) are sure to be happy with her latest book, Pies and Prejudice.
